It bounced back because his account was full. When I tried to delete teh message from my Inbox on Evolution, my CPU and Memory usage went off the chart. I had to hard boot this morning because after 8 hours it hadnt dropped any. When I turned on Evolution again, it did this again right away. What can I do? </blockquote></div> Backup your mailbox. Save the offending email to a seperate file using the standard command line client "mail" Remove it using the standard command line client "mail". Start up Evolution and make sure the CPU usage is normal and that the email has indeed vanished. Consider raising a bug against evolution and if you are happy to, attach the mail which causes the bug. -- Steve Despair - It's always darkest just before it goes pitch black...
